Determining Your Setup

The "Setup" filter helps you to focus on those presets best-suited for how you use your Axe-Fx.

FRFR/Direct presets (like all of the Factory presets) are designed for "full-range flat-response" systems such as studio monitors, PAs, headphones, etc.

Pwr. Amp + Cab presets use real power amps and guitar speakers.

4-Cable Method (aka :4CM") presets require a special setup with connectors both in front of and in the effects loop of a real amp.

Fx Loop presets in the loop of a real amp. A loop may be SERIES or PARALLEL and the preset needs to be built accordingly.

Gtr Amp Input presets should be used in front of a (real) head or combo. Guitar->Axe-Fx->Amp Input.

Other setups also exist (e.g. combinations of the above).

The Axe-Fx II manual (chapter three) includes more information about setups.

"Cab" search results ignore the settings of this filter.

Description I'm aiming for the studio album tone here. Play in stereo too. It sounds to me like they have done something to the sample rate of the guitar tracks. You can hear this on A Sort of Homecoming, Pride (in the name of love), and Bad, Zooropa, Do You Feel Loved, and Last Night On Earth - to name a few. you should be able to hear right away at the start and throughout these songs what took me a long time to figure out what this sound was ... the sample rate of some of the recorded instruments seems to have been lowered to give a unique sound. I have had zero luck finding information about this but after fiddling around in the Ableton Live Recording DAW about 9 years ago I stumbled across this effect where you could lower the bit rate or sample rate of the track - so when I lowered the sample rate and heard what it did, I thought holy shit, that's what this sound is in all these songs I'm hearing but couldn't figure out what is causing it. So I explained this on the forum here and requested to Cliff in the wish list if he could add sample rate reduction - and sure enough he did - and I thought how fricken cool is that....
